Samsung has announced its latest Note-series smartphone – the Galaxy Note9 (review) – in new Snow White colour in Taiwan. The handset with a new paint job comes just in time for Christmas. The Galaxy Note9 Snow White shade sits against the originally launched Midnight Black, Metallic Copper, Lavender Purple, and Ocean Blue colour options. Unlike the Ocean Blue variant that includes a Yellow S Pen, the Snow White Galaxy Note9 has it in matching hue.

Samsung Galaxy Note9 price, availability

Although Samsung hasn’t made any hardware changes, the Galaxy Note9 Snow White variant comes with only 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage. The handset with the said configuration has been priced at TWD 30,900 (~Rs 70,470). It’ll be available for sale from early December exclusively at the Samsung Experience Hall, Samsung Smart Pavilion, Samsung Mall and NT Telecom. As for the offers, Samsung is giving away Wireless Fast Charge Charger worth TWD 1,190 (~Rs 2,800) for free to customers who will be purchasing the Note9 before December 31st.

For those unaware, the Galaxy Note 9 was released in August with a starting price of $999 (roughly Rs 70,500). The smartphone was later introduced in India at Rs 67,900 for the base 6GB RAM/ 128GB storage variant and Rs 84,900 for the top-end 8GB RAM/ 512GB storage model. Samsung hasn’t announced yet when the snow white Galaxy Note9 variant is going to be launched in India.

Samsung Galaxy S9 Gradient Blue

Moving on to Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S9 (review) smartphone, it has been tipped to arrive in a new gradient blue shade shortly. The new colour variant will reportedly be called Ice Blue. As can be seen on the alleged live images of the handset, it’ll flaunt a dual-tone glass finish at the back. The top part of the phone seems to have a blue paint job, while the bottom has a grey hue.

While the Galaxy S9 Ice Blue looks nothing short of premium in pictures, it’ll interesting to see if the phone will be as pleasing when it’s officially out. Right now, the Galaxy S9 is available in three hues: Blue, Black, and Purple, in India.
